Stable Operation

The host computer software comes with UW Laser's smooth motion trajectory algorithm. With intelligent dispensing control, it can ensure a smooth and stable dispensing process, guarantee the consistency of the glue pattern, thereby greatly improving the quality of dispensing.

2. Metal Bipolar Plate Welding and Sealing Line

Bipolar plates are important components of fuel cells and a major part of the quality of the stack. They play an indispensable role in the operation of fuel cells and are required to possess characteristics such as good electrical conductivity, strong corrosion resistance, high mechanical strength, and light weight. The metal bipolar plate welding and sealing line independently developed by UW Laser has successfully applied laser welding technology to the processing of metal bipolar plates for hydrogen energy batteries, which can effectively improve the welding flatness and the yield of finished products.

The metal bipolar plate welding and sealing line can achieve flexible production and unmanned operation. It is mainly used for processes such as welding, airtight testing, appearance inspection, resistance measurement, thickness measurement, dimension measurement and marking. This production line consists of functional equipment including cathode/anode plate loading devices, bipolar plate welding equipment, bipolar plate airtight testing equipment, appearance inspection equipment, resistance measurement equipment, thickness and dimension measurement equipment and so on.

Highlights
